i just called the doorman and told him i hit myself on the toilet bowl and can he do something to make using the tub safer.

Good thinking. Hopefully you'll get some one to put in some type of safety feature.

Somewhere I think I remember you mentioning influx of roaches lately and I was thinking it was probably from all the water from the last hurricane.

You also asked me if I was still fearful of the bathtub sides and getting in and out. The only time lately I notice it's a problem is if I've felt ill, like after my Covid vaccine, I felt very weak for a few weeks. Sometimes if I go out in the yard on the mower and things in the humidity and heat, I come back in to shower straight away as I'm hot and also because I have a Tick allergy and there are tiny ticks in the long grass here most of the year. We have Bandicoots and Echidnas here in the yard and they are hosts for ticks. Nothing I can do about that.

I tend not to do things automatically anymore. I am more mindful of my actions. I slipped on the stairs years ago and hurt my head badly. I also have Neuropathy in my feet now and so I have to be more mindful of my feet as well and make sure I'm stable.

Hoping you have a good weekend. Peace

They sell suction cups with grab bars that you
can place where ever you want and your not

drilling any holes just the suction does well.Not

sure how expensive they are The suction really

has a good hold but they are only good for about
a year. so there is that but hey safety is worth it.


WE watched a movie tonight together so that was nice.
good luck getting those hand grabbers. I think
the bench sounds like it would not work out. You'
need alot of space. And the one suggestion about
the towel would be for the inside of the tub so there
would not be any slippage run the water and start

the shower head then the towel gets wet before

getting into the tub. I think your stick on strips
will be very good for you.

i had bought one when i first starting having trouble getting out of the tub. they are dangerous. i threw it out. my balance and walking are bad again. i didn't wake up depressed as i usually do and didn't have a stomach ache as usual.
i just finished when starS collide. susan elizabeth phillips is my favorite author. i usually don't read a book again but i enjoyed this one so much i am going to start reading it again.
i left a message with the super about the fall and if he could help me. robert is coming over to measure and he suggested a sliding bench.
love
bobby off to read.

i just got so depressed. i am so upset about my walking and balance. around my shoulders hurt. i love baths and they relax me but now i am terrified of them. i was so luck i didn't knock myself unconscious or have a concussion.
now i have to start over to get better at walking and balance.
on monday i will speak a psychiactric nurse who takes medicare and drop my psychiatrist who no longer takes medicare and charges me 60 dollars a month for clonazepam. i should go to a doctor to check out my recent spelling problems since the vaccine but it is such a big deal to walk and get somebody to go with me. maybe i had another stroke.

lately stupid me had trouble using my wireless mouse. finally tried to install a new battery. i used to be so smart and quick.
a long time acquaintance who is lovely and kind reached me on facebook about cecilia. i wrote what i knew. she is going to call me. i might ask her if she could go occasionally to the doctor's. i always take a cab
